what if?

The way I see it you are the admin and supposed to set up a correct
documentroot, there are not "what if" for things under your control
imo.

About the internals probably some knowledgeable dev can tell you much
better than I, but afaik DocumentRoot is always checked because it is
"where all starts", that is, by definition DocumentRoot is where
apache starts looking when serving requests, all things you "mount"
such as aliases are "mounted" on top/after/relative to it, so just
take better care where you point the documentroot because it is
important.
